Purpose

To notify and seek approval to
add a permanent post to the establishment to meet the changing
needs of the Housing Directorate and for future requirements to
support projects, including Local Government Reorganisation
(LGR).

Decision

AGREED To restructure
the ICT & DS Business Unit with the objective of creating one
additional permanent position.
 

Reasons for the decision

To ensure adequate
capacity for both present and future workloads, it is essential to
align organisational and community plan objectives with anticipated
requirements for LGR.
 

Alternative options considered

Temporary resources,
such as agencies, contractors, and fixed-term staff, have been
reviewed and rejected because of current market conditions, a
shortage of short-term talent, and a preference for individuals
committed to the long-term success of systems and data
quality.
